Dash LEDs

[RumbleBee]

I have finally bit the bullet and made a new dash. After a lot of swearing and skinned knuckles it looks pretty sweet. Annoyingly I have snapped the top off one of the tiny LEDs next to the heater controls (the red one, about 2 or 3mm diameter)

I can get a replacement pretty easily, but Im not sure if it will be a 12V one or a 5V one. Does anyone know the voltage of these ones?


Many thanks in advance.

As a direct fit I bought a set from ebay with the resistors in. Probably way more expenisve than maplin or farnell but quick fit and forget.

Cant see any new listings for them but maybe email the seller ive seen them on there loads of times.

Pics of your dash ASAP then

12v - Maplins do them.

Hi RumbleBee, I don't know about the Maplins replacements but as neal980 I bought the set from e-b** I thought I'd only damaged one, but on fitting found two more refused to light. I guess the e-b** was spot on when he stated you will need the set. Sod of a job isn't it? Cheers John042

Yup, it sure is a sod. Many thanks for your responses, all I need to worry about now is waving my soldering iron about in the car.



Cheers folks.
